CA/NV: Tahoe Rim Trail

I completed the Tahoe Rim Trail in summer 2015 as a reward for finishing graduate school. The Trail is a 165-mile long-distance hiking trail that encircles the Lake Tahoe Basin in the Sierra Nevada and Carson ranges of California and Nevada.

The Tahoe Rim Trail Association keeps a site full of useful information, including on water sources, Desolation Wilderness permits, and transportation options.
